They’ve tried to decimate the “the arts”, and have succeeded to a great degree.

Yes.
I still remember being appalled in 1960 [at least to the extent that a second-grader can feel appalled] that the Soviets encouraged children to rat on their parents. I couldn't imagine such a thing.
But it's common here now. Parents use drugs? Parents own a gun? Parents leave you "unattended"? I understand that there's a great deal of child abuse in our society now, but that the innocent must be swept into the mess is inexcusable and unnecessary.
